Tokka - in progress

Working on new piece for a collector. Tokka from TMNT 2

TMNT V3 finished paint

Here is the finished piece. I went with a realistic turtle paintjob and created a worn distressed bandana.

TMNT sculpt finished and molded

Just added a few scars to the face and brow of my new turtle and had him molded over the weekend. Currently have my first latex piece drying and plan to paint him this week. More pics to come.

TMNT ninja turtle bust finished

Here is the finished sculpture. Finished the skin details and wrinkles, used turtle references for the scales and made them light so they wouldn't take away from the piece.

Ninja turtle collectible display in progress

Update: i have worked out the expression and am happy with the way he is turning out. The angle of the head is slightly lowered down, more anger or disgust in his eyes. I also started detailing his chest and shell area. He is coming along nicely now, more detailing on the way, then he off to molding.

New Ninja turtle bust in progress

Just started working on a new bust this week. Another ninja turtle piece, the third piece out of four different expressions. For this one i wanted to go slightly larger and i also want to make him rougher and more realistic with skin textures and scars. Here is the progress i have so far.

Concept bust, the starting idea i was going for. I am going to try for a more subtle expression for him in the end.
Here is the block in, about 1.5 hrs in.


Here the block in is finished and i am starting to work on the expression and forms, 4hrs in.

Here is where i am currently. I started refining more and added some forms to the face for the expression. Also started defining the shell.

TMNT V2 finished

Here are some finished pics of my new turtle sculpt. I have him molded and am currently casting my first mask from the mold.
